In general, crash doesn't support cross-platform
usage. That is to say, if you want to
look at a PPC dump, you need to do it on a PPC machine,
using a crash that was
built on a PPC machine.
This is not, strictly speaking, an inherent
limitation. I've got a version of crash that
can handle MIPS dumps, and I build and run this version of
crash on an x86 system.
While I was at it, I added the capability of building an
x86 version of crash on an x86_64
system, but Dave A. hasn't seemed interested in
picking up such changes.

Subject: Debugging PPC crash-dumps on x86_64
I have a crash-dump generated on PPC using diskdump .
Can this crash-dump be analyzed using crash-utility running on a x86_64
machine ?
Thanks and regards
